VOXL2 vlan

jcai

Hello, has 8021q vlan been tested on the VOXL2 before? I'm building the module for 1.8.02 for SDK 1.4 by enabling CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q, but it's causing some issues.

Below is the output from lsmod before and after enabling the module:

The cause of this can be found using dmesg, where an example line is shown below. A multitude of other modules are showing similar errors with other symbols like _dev_err

[    4.764189] voxl_gpio_mod: disagrees about version of symbol device_create
[    4.764192] voxl_gpio_mod: Unknown symbol device_create (err -22)

However, running dmesg | grep VLAN gives:

voxl2:/$ dmesg | grep VLAN
[    1.954223] 8021q: 802.1Q VLAN Support v1.8
[    5.013433] 8021q: adding VLAN 0 to HW filter on device bond0

@jcai Are you seeing any negative effects from this other than the errors in dmesg? It may not be an issue if not

jcai

@tom There's a couple, which I'm guessing have to do with all those modules not getting loaded anymore:

eth0 no longer shows up in ifconfig
voxl-configure-cameras returns cat: /sys/module/voxl_platform_mod/parameters/config: No such file or directory

There may be more, but I haven't dug too deep into finding all the effects

@jcai , you are probably modifying / building the kernel for an older SDK (while using newer SDK) or you have the kernel built for SDK 1.4.0 but actual installed SDK is older.

You can see which versions / tags of kernel and meta-voxl2 / meta-voxl2-bsp repos are used in each SDK here: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-voxl2-mini-system-image/

and follow instructions how to get the right tags as mentioned here : https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-kernel-build-guide/#get-the-correct-tags

Please double check that the installed SDK matches the version of the kernel that you are customizing.

jcai

@Alex-Kushleyev To be sure, I cleaned the workspace and rebuilt the docker image as well. I re-synced, ensuring that the tag for the repos is v1.8.02. My voxl is also on SDK 1.4

Is this behaviour reproducible?

Alex Kushleyev

@jcai , hmm.. I will need to check with our Kernel guru :).

Will get back to you soon..

Hey @jcai ,

Are you building a "debug" or "perf" kernel?

There's a little slop I have with voxl-gpio-mod and voxl-platform-mod.... they're being built out of tree and shipping in the rootfs... which if you load a debug kernel, causes problems like above....

By default the build is 'perf':
https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/system-image-build/qrb5165-kernel-build-docker/-/blob/qrb5165-ubun1.0-14.1a/bin/qrb5165-build.sh?ref_type=heads#L13

If you are using 'perf' and still having issues please let me know.

I want to move these two modules IN TREE, then this can go away... we're planning on doing this in future (major) release.

jcai

@modaltb As far as I can tell, I'm building a perf kernel. These are my changes:

MODAL_REPO_BRANCH=v1.8.02 in bin/qrb5165-common.sh

I've added the following lines to ./lu.um.1.2.1/apps_proc/poky/meta-voxl2-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux-msm/files/fragments/m005x.cfg:

CONFIG_MACVLAN=y
CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q=y

And then building:

./qrb5165-build.sh -m M0054
